Research Interests
My PhD research focuses on building trustworthy Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems that are fair, interpretable, and robust. This includes but is not limited to auditing different systems, proposing solutions to make current models more fair and robust against intentional or unintentional threats and finally proposing methods to make AI systems be explainable while maintaining other characteristics of a trustworthy system.
